Applications need to stop DMA transfers and finish all the inflight
packets when in VM memory hot-plug case and async vhost is used. This
patch is to provide an unsafe API to clear inflight packets which
are submitted to DMA engine in vhost async data path. Update the
program guide and release notes for virtqueue inflight packets clear
API in vhost lib.

There is no reason for the DPDK libraries to all have 'librte_' prefix on
the directory names. This prefix makes the directory names longer and also
makes it awkward to add features referring to individual libraries in the
build - should the lib names be specified with or without the prefix.
Therefore, we can just remove the library prefix and use the library's
unique name as the directory name, i.e. 'eal' rather than 'librte_eal'
